These prices are still low. I'm going to bid on the blue one if it doesn't get out of hand. If anyone really needs it, let me know and I'll back out.

Very nica and I do not have either of those but I need to contain my egas for now as I need to finish the studio and make room for what I have now. Good Luck.

I used to own the natural that's listed and it's a real nice axe.

Jead,

That one does look nice. In fact, it is probably the nicer of the two as far as condition goes. This isn't you selling it, is it?

Nope - The guy I sold it to immediately put it up for re-sale. I have no idea why.

Care to share what he got it for?

Or would that be in bad form?

Wow! $340 for the blue one.................... a little rich for my blood considering the condition. Is this some kind of record for one of these?

The blue ones are a bit harder to find. Must have been a collector. i think it was nice example but that went a little high I think. It is however worth whatever you wish to pay for it so I hope it found a good home.

The blue did get some hefty bucks. If the natural stays under $200 it's a good deal.

True, something is worth whatever someone will pay for it. It looks like two collectors butted heads here.

Whoa. Lucky for me I have three blue Phoenixes. That's a grand worth of guitars!

Honestly, I think the Phoenix price bump is long overdue. Go see what a "Squier Pro Tone" Strat is worth... then consider just how much better-made the Electras are than even the best Korean Squier.
